Step-Drag Footwork

How to

Setup: Take a balanced stance on a clear, nonslip floor with enough room for two small steps.

Steps:

1. Step a short distance with the foot nearest the direction of travel.
2. Bring the other foot along without crossing or clicking the heels together.
3. Repeat in the other direction, then practice forward and back.

Cues: Keep your stance width. · Use quiet, short steps.

Stop if: you feel unsteady or have pain in a foot or knee.

Easier: Practice side steps in a square stance.

Harder: Add a light hand combination while keeping steps small.
